Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

My husband doesn't like it, either, Morticia, but it is a great favorite of my older son's.

What a relief! I thought I was the ONLY one! LOL!

guess what's coming around the bend, my friend?

Svengoolie hosts old horror movies each Saturday night on Me-TV

I like Svengoolie, he can be pretty funny.

I wish Elvira could have made her last show work. I've been buying the DVD compilations.

just watched a movie called "the Collection" on Netflix yesterday. for a cut to the chase slasher film (and gore if you're into that stuff) its pretty entertaining

Honestly, I was disappointed with that one. The first movie was much better, I thought.

lol I didn't even know there was a first but i'm assuming now that you're talking about "the collector"? i'll have to check that out

That is correct.

Has anyone here seen Stoker? We bought that one a week or so back. It said on the outside that it was "eerie and chilling," so I bought it without knowing anything about it. It gave me nightmares! It's directed by some Asian dude who doesn't speak English, and this is his first American movie (Nicole Kidman is one of the actors, so these are A-list people). He is well-known in Asia, apparently, and everyone wanted to work with him.

Anyway, that movie has this Asian thing going, where the images are kind of quiet and creepy and really stick with you. (I don't mean the setting is Asian--quite the contrary. It is set in America, North Carolina, IIRC.) Then, the story itself is somewhat unconventional and doesn't go where I expected it to go. It really, really rattled me. Gave me one of the worst nightmares I've had in decades.

last night on svengoolie, my wife and i watched...



and next saturday night svengoolie hosts...

yes, we watched...

but it was a bit long-winded...

no real horror until the very end...
